Grow your B2B SaaS Startup

Brennan Dunn on Growing Your Startup with Smart Personalization

Today, I’m talking with Brennan Dunn, the Co-Founder of RightMessage, a SaaS startup that makes it easy to capture more sales without driving more traffic by speaking directly to the person reading your website.

If your salesperson made the exact same pitch to every single prospect, you’d probably fire them, right? So why do you let your website do it? If somebody is already on your email list, why are you asking again for their email address on an opt-in? If you know what industry a prospect is in, why are you showing them testimonials from unrelated companies?

The simple answer is because personalization is hard and requires enterprise-grade (and cost) tools or significant development. With RightMessage, Brennan aims to change that.

In our chat, Brennan shares why personalization is so valuable, how valuable it has been to some of his early customers, and how you can get similar results without rethinking your entire marketing strategy.

This is a masterclass on personalization that you don’t want to miss.

Topics covered:

The value of personalization

When you talk about personalization, what exactly do you mean? How is this different than a mail merge for the web?

What sort of results are your clients seeing?

How much effort is required on their part to get those results?

What does a startup need to do to implement this the right way?

Seems like they need to rethink their entire marketing strategy rather than just plugging in a few unrelated tactics

Won’t this be a distraction?

When should a startup consider investing the resources to pursue this?
